Abstract: Abstract. This paper presents a procedure for the automatic registration of thermographies with laser scanning point clouds. Given the heterogeneous nature of the two modalities, we propose a feature-based approach, satisfying the requisite that extracted features have to be invariant not only to rotation, translation and scale but also to changes in illumination and dimensionality. As speed and minimum operator interaction are prerequisites for the viability of the process in the building industry, our automatic registration procedure includes...
